The Price of Secrets Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 31 ratings

When Jamie Crandall left Seattle for college twenty-five years ago, she was pregnant. Her mother demanded that she abort the child or get the hell out of Seattle and never come back.

Jamie chose the latter, using her scholarship to UC Berkeley to disappear with the son she refused to abort. But now, everything has changed. Her mother has died, and Jamie is coming home to face the father of her son.

Reuniting her son and his father will come at a high price though…Jamie has one more secret left to reveal.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Jacquie May Miller published her first article at age eleven in her neighborhood newspaper, the Nosy Neighborhood News. Many years passed before she was chosen as the featured writer in a literary journal produced at Washington State University where her short story, Bernie’s Choice, was chosen over many qualified submissions and published in 2013. It was recently re-published on her blog.

Jacquie’s first novel, THE PRICE OF SECRETS, is a work of women’s fiction which explores the tenuous thread connecting family and a love left behind so many years ago. Secrets of the past will either break or strengthen that slim thread, but not without a price.

In addition to writing THE PRICE OF SECRETS, Jacquie has created May Daze, a blog exploring the value of friendship, family and life’s little surprises. You will find her at www.jmaydaze.com where she has attracted a loyal following.

Jacquie lives in Washington close to her only child, Brittney, who is the light of her life.

    The author takes us deep inside the mind of the story's protagonist as she confronts her youthful history in the city that she fled at age seventeen. Now, she's at the twenty-fifth reunion of her high school class, navigating the personalities that had caused her both great grief and great joy. With secrets deep inside her that she's compelled to share, we hear and feel the mental conflict in real time, just as she does. Gaining strength to finally be herself amongst those previously dominant personalities, she is able to once again leave her home town, but with her head held high. And with the chaos of that earlier time finally put to rest. A compelling look deep inside the mind and emotions of this book's lead character. Much of this story will resonate with all who ponder their own past.
